Abstract—To explore the intellectual structure of image processing and dementia research in the last decade, this study identified the most important publications and the most influential scholars as well as the correlations among these scholar’s publications. In this study, bibliometric and social network analysis techniques are used to investigate the intellectual pillars of the image processing and dementia literature. By analyzing 217,931 citations of 3,310 articles published in SSCI journal in image processing and dementia area between 2011 and 2020, this study maps a knowledge network of image processing and dementia studies. The results of the mapping can help identify the research direction of image processing and dementia research and provide a valuable tool for researchers to access the literature in this area.
